Newsletter #3: In our Galleries ~ Edith Freeman and Edward S. Curtis

May 1, 2014

This summer the Bair Museum hosts Montana Seasons, a special exhibition of work by Montana artist Edith Freeman(1912–1992), May 30–October 31, 2014. On loan from the Yellowstone Art Museum, the exhibit also features a set of her working tools and a woodblock the public is allowed to touch, an experience that allows them to fully appreciate her artistry. In the 1950s Freeman developed her own technique for printing multiple colors with a single block. The results are lush and serene prints that capture central Montana in all its varied seasons.
